Suggest Remedy For Heavy Menstrual Bleeding And Unbearable Pain During Menstruation
Question: Hi doctor. I have heavy menstrual bleeding and unbearable pain during the cycle. I have visited 4 gynae and they say it is normal.I suspect if I am suffering from ghonorrea. Where can I undergo test for it.
Brief Answer:
You have dysfunctional uterine bleeding
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
What you mention is a phenomenon called dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB). Your symptoms are not consistent with gonorrhea and hence I do not think that you need to get tested for gonorrhea. However, if you still wish to know, let me know and I will suggest the tests to be done. You can get them done from your local laboratory.
DUB can very effectively be managed with low dose hormonal pills (which may otherwise serve as birth control pills). Anovular cycles are not painful and the excess bloodloss can also be minimized by the use of these pills.
Regards

Hi doctor, what do you suggest ? Can you prescribe me any medicine which will be helpful for me to cure DUB. Is DUB curable? Right now during cycle I take trapic MF and mefthal spas. But I want to cure this . can you please help me. Thank you for your reply and help.
Brief Answer:
Take the pills
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back. I would suggest you to take any birth control pill like Ovral L daily from the beginning of your next cycle. It is available without prescription. DUB is not curable but can be kept in control, and often it gradually subsides. Trapic MF or meftal spas are right to be given if the pain develops.
